- ZeroGravitas 4y agoThe blog is a front for the meat industry. They try to stick to the areas where they can have vaguely plausible deniability that they're not just attacking everything that would impact meat sales and agriculture subsidies, with the cover that they're "wanting to look at the evidence". But the comment I replied to quotes them having a swipe at a challenge to meat from a non-nutrition angle, which tips their hand a little. The whole, "we just want the science to be certain" thing is a popular tactic, see for example the Heartland Institute's attempt to have a "Red Team" of scientists pick holes in climate science: https://climateinvestigations.org/heartland-institute-climate-red-team/ https://climateinvestigations.org/heartland-institute-climat... Wouldn't surprise me if you could trace this group back to them too. Ha, didn't think it would be that easy: https://www.heartland.org/news-opinion/news/follow-the-science-at-least-on-nutrition https://www.heartland.org/news-opinion/news/follow-the-scien... For those that prefer Youtube videos: Is Nina Teicholz right about saturated fat or is she a lobbyist for the meat industry? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VK5ApjZdPEo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VK5ApjZdPEo lots of links in the description too.
